Apparently the effort of cleaning up the forums has been biased, so the CoD group get their own thread for discussing as well.

Just got killed by my own Trophy System. -_-
Nice montage Pickpocket. Only suggestion, and this is just a personal preference, is to make the montage with one specific gun or play style. I didn't really like how you went from the Spas-12 to the P90 to the Barret to the L118A. It was all cool and stuff, but it didn't seem to flow together. I think that the quickscoping could have been one video, and the P90 another video.
And how do you guys reccomend I get good at quick scoping without totally ruining my K/D ratio? I need to practice, obviously, but any good tips or loadouts?
Favorite Sniper Rifles:
CodR: R700
MW2: Barret .50 Cal
MW3: L118A
Ussualy I prefer bolt-action, but as I got better at sniping in MW2, I put myself in positions that I would encounter more enemies. So the quick followup of the Barret plus its damage was needed. And my 2000 kill with it was also my 1000 head shot.
Go play some tdm if you want to get better at quick scooping. Play with some low support killstreaks so you don't get stressed. That's what I did with the red l118 on dome. Then I went back to domination with the msr and got the choppers and stuff like you saw. But dome is probably the best map for practice.

Thats what they were before one was with the Sniper one was with the Spas 12 and one was the P90. He just combined all them using the Youtube editor and posted them combined. Besides I think the flow actually worked pretty well for him. Maybe if they weren't in order like he went P90 kill to sniper to spas 12 back to P90 then it would be more of a variation and would seem to flow better.
Im thinking about just puting a acog on the barret or dragnov and running around spraying when people make me mad does that work good does anyone no?

barret: yes
dragnov: no
use rsass. its best for that.

not all the videos were old. most of the quick scoping was new. the barret, p90 and spas were old.

use whatever sniper you want. i say start with barret because you can fire more shots faster. for the perks get sleight of hand, quickdraw and steady aim or marksman. i say if your more into hardscoping have marksman, and more into quick scoping use steady aim. next, go play some tdm. have low support killstreaks (i recomend just uav and c-uav.) so you dont get stressed out about getting kills. then go and enjoy yourself as you crush the dreams of all the newbies to the game. after that, use a new gun and some new killstreaks. then bump it up to domination and you should be good. another thing that helps is haveing quick scope matches with someone who is not the greatest.

Search on YouTube for some videos about a quickscoping tutorial in MW3, though it isn't that hard of a concept. Then go into a private match with a friend so you can practice, or split screen so you have a target.
As for loadouts, the perks I recommend for a beginner is sleight of hand, quickdraw, and steady aim. Sleight of hand so if you miss your shot then you can quickly switch to your secondary, also a faster reload if you don't have extended mags for a sniper unlocked. And steady aim because it makes the crosshairs smaller, so it'd be easier to get on target. After you get somewhat good, then I suggest switching out steady aim for dead silence or sitrep. None of the other third tier perks seem that useful for a sniper. First tier perks don't really matter either, you could put on blind eye or extreme conditioning to substitute sleight of hand if you don't want the fast weapon switch or reload. The important one is quickdraw, so you can ADS faster.
But once you get your sniper to a high level, use focus. Focus has to be the best proficiency to use because it reduces flinch when you are hit, which means more of your shots will hit if you are taking fire.
dragnov
You know, I don't understand why they put obsolete weapons in the game. If you look at all the snipers, the RSASS (which is like the dragunov, but has more ammo and less recoil) is better to use. Also the MP5, it's obsolete because the P90 has the same stats, except the P90 has more ammo.

its also got faster fire rate. its so sad. the dragnov was so good in the spec ops missions for mw2. the first time i tried it, i cried.
MP5
but its more balanced because you get it first, where as you get the dragnov third i think, following the barret and the l118a.
but its more balanced because you get it first
My point is that it's an obsolete gun, just like the M16 in the assault rifle category. For balance they should give guns strong points and weak points, but you won't really gain anything good with the M16 over the Type-95, same with the MP5 and P90. I really don't understand why they nerfed the M16 and MP5 from MW2, those were my two favorite guns to use.
To balance it out I think they should give the M16 the Type-95s damage and give the Type-95 the M16s damage, so that the M16 would have high damage with a moderate fire rate and the Type-95 would have moderate damage with a high fire rate, instead of how it is now and the Type-95 has both.
And with the MP5, I think they should reduce the recoil and give it a little more damage, so the con of using this gun would be the low amount of ammo. It has a standard 30 rounds, while the other smgs have more.

That was mainly what i was referring to

im gonna try and make another montage over the weekend. i have a 4 day weekend. if not, then i will at least get some good gameplay up.
split screen so you have a target.
Been doing this. But I have a feeling it'll be harder to hit a moving target ten feet away than a stationary one from across the map.

Son, in CoD4 the M16 and MP5 were the two most powerful guns in the entire game. They got nerfed drastically in MW2, but everyone used them for awhile as the idea of their power was still around. If you look in all the CoD games since then, those guns have sucked because IW and 3Arch are scared of the public outrage if anyone thinks they're OP.
As for quickscoping, I've been using the L118A ACOG, both in practice and in actual playing. I did decent in my first few rounds, but then sucked horribly in my next few. Heres my class:
Primary: L118A ACOG w/Kick
Secondary: Akimbo MP9s
Lethal: Throwing Knife
Tactical: Scrambler
Perk 1: Sleight of Hand PRO
Perk 2: Quickdraw PRO
Perk 3: Sleight of Hand PRO
Support: UAV, Counter-UAV, Advanced UAV
It seems the only thing left to do is practice. Though when I practiced against a target in split screen, I noticed that, for me atleast, its nearly impossible to hit a target when I'm moving. Unless I'm ridiculously close, I can't hit worth squat. Is this just me, or an actual game mechanic? From what I can tell, I'm on target with the ACOG, but its not hitting.

If you can, get someone to be the second player.

M16 in Black Ops was actually one of my favorite guns, the fire rate felt good and it wouldn't take more than two bursts to kill.
L118A ACOG w/Kick
Acog on snipers isn't that good, because of the weapon sway and you don't have the range of a normal scope. Kick is useless for bolt actions.
Support
Specialist is better. Though if you rather run support, I just recommend uav and ballistic vests. Those vests help a lot.

When you ADS with a sniper you're supposed to be at a complete stop if you want it to hit.
do what i said about the tdm. it works really good, because everyone playing tdm sucks. the only thing wrong would proabably be the acog. i HATE acog snipers. if you want to practice quick scoping, dont use acog. if you have nothing unlocked then dont use anything. even the heartbeat sensor is pointless. the only 2 good attachments are variable zoom and extended mags. i dont like v-zoom very much, so i go with extended mags. just my preference
hey im looking for some ps3 guys for my next video. its gonna have a bunch of people playing in the montage. all you need to do is make two less then 30 seconds long videos and send me a message. if its good, then i will include one or 2 of them in the video. i would like to do this, but im not sure if i can, theater mode is confusing.
